Once a successful businessman living the high life, Angelo Mastropietro is now a self-proclaimed caveman. The 38-year-old was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2007. The condition led to him being temporarily paralyzed, and inspired him to seek a simpler life out in the hills, far away from the pressures of everyday life. But before you think Angelo is slumming it out in the wildnerness, think again…
While on a bike ride in 1999, Angelo found himself inside an abandoned cave in the UK’s Wyre Forest. More than 10 years later, he learned the dwelling was up for sale. So, he spent over two million dollars turning the 700-year-old cave — made of 250 million year old sandstone — into his dream home.
After spending 1000 hours and excavating 70-80 tons of rubble by hand, Angelo turned this deep, dark cave dwelling into an extraordinarily lavish abode — complete with heated floors, a fully functioning kitchen, WiFi, fresh running water, outdoor patios, and gorgeously rustic decor.
Wait until you see this incredible space. Please SHARE it with your friends on Facebook!
